JMIR Formative Research

For each WB, 6 gait characteristics were obtained from the single wearable device and the reference system: cadence (steps per minute; the number of steps taken per minute), stride length (meters; the length of 2 consecutive steps), number of steps, stride duration (seconds) [27], walking speed (m/s) [26], and distance (meters). The walked distance was calculated by multiplying 2 validated DMOs [27]: average walking speed × WB duration.

Comparing Digital Versus Face-to-Face Delivery of Systemic Psychotherapy Interventions: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Digital delivery provides solutions to many mental health intervention obstacles, such as limited access [1], geographical distance [2], financial constraints [3], and transportation issues [4]. These factors, and not least the COVID-19 pandemic [5], have contributed to increased delivery of digital modalities of mental health care [6].

Assessing the Effectiveness of a Massive Open Online Course for Caregivers Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic: Methodological Study

Therefore, traditional education has been gradually superseded or supplemented by distance education, supported by virtual classes and other web-based tools [7,8]. Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have emerged as a solution to support the empowerment of family caregivers of vulnerable people, especially in times of social isolation. These courses are presented as a new pedagogical approach that helps overcome learning barriers.

Step and Distance Measurement From a Low-Cost Consumer-Based Hip and Wrist Activity Monitor: Protocol for a Validity and Reliability Assessment

Using proprietary algorithms, data from measures collected along with information input by the user can estimate steps, distance, physical activity, kilocalories, and sleep [4,5,25,26]. Among these outputs, step and distance measurements while walking remain the most popular and translatable outputs in use today [4,25,27-29].
